I'm starting to resent some of Tyler's actions when it comes to helping me with Paul. He hasn't felt %100 the past 2 weeks, so I have been getting up all times with Paul. When it's only once or twice a night thats fine, but when it's three times, or like one night, up once but for three hours, it wears on me a little. I haven't felt great either, but I do it because I love Paulie and he needs to be taken care of.
But last night, I asked Tyler for help. I asked him to get up with Paul on one of the 2 times he wake up, because I was really tired. So, I get up with Paul the first time, after asking Tyler if he would, and Tyler telling me he'll get up with Paul the next time. Well, the next time came at 4:30 when our alarm goes off for us to get up. The Tyler has the nerve to ask me to come back and wake him in a half an hour. Like he had gotten up in the night and been awake for an hour and a half? I just don't understand. And then when I was visibly a little miffed about it, he gives me the silent treatment because I'm being "snappy" to him.
I don't want stuff like this to get in the way of us being a loving family, and I don't want it to effect our husband/wife relationship, but dang it if sometimes I totally feel like asking him for help is an inconvenience. How in the heck are you supposed to talk about stuff like this without totally hurting the other person?
